Jury Duty

My Master sent me a note telling me I might have to serve on a Jury on Thursday.  He also said I should check his website www.alameda.courts.ca.gov after 5:00 PM on Wednesday to see if my group of slaves would actually be needed.   Of course as of 5:35 PM the Government "workers" in charge there had failed to update anything and only today's information is on the site.  Wanting to know if I needed to don kevlar and travel into downtown Oakland or not, I called the automated phone number, at least the 20th century tech stuff was working and updated.  Master says he doesn't need me in the morning but I'm to check in again at 11:00 AM in case Master has decided to use me in the afternoon.  He said on the phone I could go about my normal business until then.  Why thank you Master!  The arrogance of these bastards just astounds me!

I wonder if I should let them know I'm an Anarchist if I go in or just serve on the jury and follow my own conscience while totally ignoring the law.  Heck, I might be able to get some poor schmuck off on a lame drug charge or something.  Ah well, I guess I'll check back with Master tomorrow to find out for sure.

Whew, that felt good!  Nothing beats a nice rant in the late afternoon.   It's even more invigorating than a strong cup of black coffee.

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Wikileaks and police state censorship

I saw an article today on SF Gate about some nit wit Bush appointed Federal Judge ordering a website I'd never heard of called Wikileaks shut down because they were publishing some bank documents from some corrupt Swiss bank. The amusing thing is that they can't actually do it! Even more amusing is that this just draws attention to the site and makes it that much more visible, yay idiot goons! :-) There are mirror sites all over the world and it's almost impossible for thuggish police state goons to figure out how to close off all of the leaks :-) One mirror site is here: http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks The US site they tried to close down is still here: http://88.80.13.160 "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe,...

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think.  :-)  I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all.  Posted via email from The Angry Gnome
